PM Anutin 'very likely' to attend 47th ASEAN Summit - Thai MOFA

KUALA LUMPUR: Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul is "very likely" to attend the 47th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits, according to the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA).

Director-General of the Department of Information and MFA spokesperson, Nikorndej Balankura, said Anutin is expected to arrive either late tonight or early tomorrow morning.

"He is very likely to be here. We are working out his schedule right now as we speak. He might arrive very late tonight or tomorrow, only just before the signing (of the joint declaration between Thailand-Cambodia), and he has to rush back to Thailand to attend the ceremony of the Queen Mother.

"So it's yet to be finalised, but more likely than not, he should be here in time for the signing," he said in a press conference here today.
